My brother got “The V”, a very fancy version of the Flying V from the early 80s that had such a great look. That’s what started me down this road of getting my own flying V.
I couldn’t just get the same one, though I wanted to (same thing goes for his Gibson Les Paul Supreme…). So I had to think about what I wanted in a flying V. After seriously considering the korina V’s from Epiphone, I realized that I preferred the slimmer body shape of the 70’s version. And when I saw that they came in olive drab color with open pickups and cream plastics (plus that pointy headstock), I was hooked. There was only one problem… It was a Gibson.com exclusive color and it was sold out!
It wasn’t even available on Reverb used at the time. I guess it was still too new and people hadn’t decided to part with theirs yet. Or maybe because it’s just that darn good and no one wanted to part with theirs! Whatever the reason, I was on a mission to get one and I finally got my chance when the Gibson Demo Shop (where they put guitars they feature in their stores, or give to artists to try, etc.) posted one. It wasn’t a great deal, but it was available and it looked great. Plus, it came with a COA and was set up from Gibson (a couple of things I wanted) so I went with it. And I couldn’t be happier with it. It’s a great guitar, a great look, and it ROCKS. Check out the video to learn more.
